British moviemakers Ridley and Tony Scott are bringing Alien back to the big screen with the help of a visionary young video director, who works for their Scott Free Productions company.

Ridley Scott made the sci-fi classic, starring Sigourney Weaver, in 1979 and now he's teaming up with his brother to produce a reported "origins story", according to website Bloody-Disgusting.com.

Hotshot filmmaker Carl Rinsch will direct the movie, which will take place just before the original film.
